Professional knowledge

• The student understands fundamental principles of building physics, particularly in areas of building acoustics and daylighting.
• The student understands the legislative requirements related to the fields building acoustics.
• Knows the assessment methods to determine sound insulation capabilities of structures to achieve acoustic comfort and indoor environmental quality.
• Is familiar with software tools used for the simulation and analysis of acoustic parameters.

Professional skills

• Can carry out basic analyses of building structures and objects (acoustic analysis and daylighting).
• Can identify critical details in terms of building acoustics (for structures) and daylighting (orientation of openings, dimensions of openings, spacing distances).
• They can propose measures to improve acoustic comfort and the quality of daylight in buildings.
• Do have the ability to independently use appropriate software tools for the simulation and evaluation of physical properties of buildings.
• Can interpret the results of analyses and apply them to the design.

Qualifications

• The student can independently design and evaluate building structures and details in terms of acoustic and lighting technical requirements. The student can evaluate a building as a whole, including its relationship to surrounding buildings.
• Can come up with appropriate solutions to meet the required physical parameters of the building.
• Is able to translate the results to the professional and wider public.
